Your saying your wife doesn't let you date.

I definitely can't fit one of my back tires in there, probably not a front tire either. The stock tires on a GT, maybe....


When you have an electronic rear differential different sized tires are a no, no.
Tire height matters, not how wide it is or isn't

No, she's not having it, even occasionally will turn on that seeking sister wife show on TLC, she just grabs the remote and turns it off.

It's never a good idea to slap a donut on the drive wheels. Before I started carrying a full-size wheel/tire (identical wheel/tire to my main wheels), I would do a tire shuffle to keep the real wheels on the drive wheels.
Why? The fronts are more important for braking and turning and braking and turning are more important for safety. Fun factor messed up regardless of front or rear so might as well be safest.

I'm more worried about damaging the drivetrain. I know how to compensate braking/steering for a compromised tire. Any driving should be slow/low/hazards on anyway when you're running a spare. Again, this is all why I went full-size. Zero compromises for me.
With a donut on the front you can't compensate for that meteor that hit exactly the minimum regular tire stopping distance in front of you. Ask me how I know.

You're too stupid to use blind spot? Lol, stop regurgitating stuff you see on the internet. If you can't see out of a zl1 and feel you can't make a clean lean change with blind spot monitoring you shouldn't be on the road.

Interior doesn't suck either.

I see the potato is out tonight. Didn't like the vision. Didn't like the interior. Simple as that ma'am.

I can’t believe Ford is still using that y2k compliant head unit in the non-premium GT. But it looks like it’s been updated to a blue background instead of a black like in my 2016. Progress.:thumbsup:

Won’t need this anymore with that world class interior.:handshake:

How rude of me. Looking at my 2016 below, it looks like I glossed over the 2021 losing a couple buttons. Even more progress! :thumbsup::thumbsup:

Buy a Hot Wheels version of the c8 and get a girlfriend.. trust me you'll be much better off this way and happier :-)

At least until your girlfriend gets demanding and your wife finds out
